Jerome,
You hit it right on the head!
My page.map file looked like this:
8 1
6 4
9 3
13 2
This was because the E.E. cloned pages from prior designs (pages
8,6,9 &13)
Named the .csa's to 1-4.
This cleared out the page.map file since numbering was correct.
(zero K file size)
1. I changed the "old" page numbers in the .csa's to match the
.csa.
2. Repackaged to Allegro.
3. Quick place by page then worked fine.
Thanks,
Mark

I use place by page a lot. It works all the time.
One thing to look for is the page.map file. When
schematic
pages are copied from other schematic or numbered
differently,
the page.map file shows the order you really want them
in.
So in the case of place by page you might seem the page
number 5
on your schematic and try to place by page all
components on page 5.
In reality these parts are on page 22 according to the
page.map file.

Well, no, I haven't had the problem, but that's because
I haven't used the "place by page" feature. Is that
cheating? In any case, I recommend contacting Cadence as
you haven't gotten any replies from the group. Usually
a sign that no one has an answer. If you do find a
solution, please let all of us know.
Good luck,
Kevin

Kevin,
No, I have not contacted Cadence yet because it
is usually much more
time consuming than this forum.
As I mentioned, it does work "sometimes" and if
anyone else uses this
feature, (which is very useful when it works),
have you run into this
inconsistency? It is very easy to setup...
select "place by page" and
type in the page number to place.
I take it you have not run into this problem.
Thanks,
Mark

Have you tried going to the page and
selecting all
of the stuff on the page? I have had
that work
just fine. Maybe there are a few bugs to
work
out on this feature. What has Cadence
told you
to do about it? You did let Cadence
know, right?

Can anybody tell me why (Quick place by

I have newly packaged 4-page Concept
design that will only place by
page 1 and 4. But not page 1 or 2.
It really seems to be a "hit or miss"
feature that is GREAT when it
works.
In many designs it will not work at all.
Any suggestions? We are using v15.1 on
windows 2000.
Thanks,
Mark
